"The trends in software promise more quality with less testing. Interestingly, if you Google 'test' you'll get 2.7 billion hits. On the Internet, testing is almost as popular as 'sex' with 3.1 billion hits. Why is testing so popular, when we are reducing testing in projects? Let's dive into this popularity-paradox by considering: The values of testing; Reality, hallucinations and imaginations; Agile's passions for the tacit and intuitive; Human emotions and psychological research; Immanuel Kant, the stoic philosophers and the testers' mind; A rational, social view on software testing."

"Join a conversation on Deliberately Developmental Organizations as presented in the book An Everyone Culture.

It means fashioning an organizational culture in which support of people’s development is woven into the daily fabric of working life and the company’s regular operations, daily routines, and conversations."

What do a polar bear and Donald Trump have in common? In recent years, both were contested motives in the visual debate on climate change. In fact, online circulation of visual data – from photographs over scientific diagrams to memes and GIFs – on social media is playing an increasingly significant role in shaping public perception of the climate issue. This is because climate imagery function as representations of how we understand the world around us, and simultaneously act to reinforce certain discourses and drive particular “ways of seeing” the climate issue. In a big data analysis of 200,000+ climate change images..."

Events for the Danish and Swedish startup scene in the Copenhagen region

We believe that sharing information about events is an important part in building a great danish / swedish startup community. Events are a way to meet other entrepreneurs and important people in the eco-system, they can create publicity about your startup, and they can be valuable occasions for gaining knowledge and insights.

Here we list events that we know about in the Copenhagen and Øresund region. If you are missing something, contact us and we will add it if it is relevant. Also, if you are a event organizer or an event-space that hosts many gatherings, talk to us and we can see if we can find a way to conviniently keep us up to date for each upcoming event.

Our hope is to be able to provide a comprehensive event calendar for any entrepreneur in the region: be it Copenhagen, Malmö, Helsingborg or any of the other cities.
